Hello all,

i'm trying to emerge mozilla (1.0-r3) but the build process fails with the message it can't find Xext.h and renderproto.h (see the error log at the end of this post). I have these headers in /usr/X11R6/include/X11/extensions where they were installed by the xfree port. Looking at the file Xrenderint.h which causes the trouble, I see an #include "Xext.h" with a comment that the file is expected in ../include, but that directory does not exist. Has anyone an idea on how I can solve this? Thanks in advance and sorry for this rather long post.

The error messages generated by emerge, I am compiling with NO_MAIL=yes, though compiling without it didn't make a difference. I'm not including gtk2 support.

Code:

I had the same problem, so here's a kludge that works: put symbolic links to Xext.h and renderproto.h in the same directory as Xrenderint.h; only you have to do this after you run emerge and the source is unpacked. Here's what I did:

Code:
ln -s /usr/X11R6/include/X11/extensions/renderproto.h var/tmp/portage/mozilla-1.0-r3/work/mozilla/other-licenses/Xft/Xrender/renderproto.h
ln -s /usr/X11R6/include/X11/extensions/Xext.h /var/tmp/portage/mozilla-1.0-r3/work/mozilla/other-licenses/Xft/Xrender/Xext.h


There's probably a smarter way to do this, but I'm still a n00b, especiall when it comes to Portage. Anyway, it compiled fine and I'm posting this message now with Mozilla, but I got the following error:

Code:

error:***********************************************************
* NB:  Please unmerge old versions of mozilla, as the header    *
* layout in /usr/lib/mozilla/include have changed and will      *
* result in compile errors when compiling programs that need    *
* mozilla headers and libs (galeon, nautilus, ...)              *
*****************************************************************


The reason why I was compiling Mozilla was to get Galeon working, which I'm going to try to emerge now; I'll post here again to see how it goes.

Well, I emerged galeon afterwards, and it worked perfectly. Oddly enough I had built libglade without gnome and I received a warning saying that I should rebuild it with gnome support, but I didn't, and I"m running galeon as we speak, so it seems okay.

thanks for the tips Carlos, i didn't even expect any answer anymore :) i'm going to try this and find out if it works for me. Eventually i simply compiled mozilla by hand and injected the package so portage would think I emerged it. But with your tips, I should be able to do a real emerge!

Thanks again
Rhialto
